Figma Create New File
Skill ActiveCreate a new blank Figma file. Use when the user wants to create a new Figma design or FigJam file, or when you need a new file before calling use_figma. Handles plan resolution via whoami if needed. Usage — /figma-create-new-file [editorType] [fileName] (e.g. /figma-create-new-file figjam My Whiteboard)
Create new Figma design or FigJam files programmatically, providing a fresh canvas before starting design work or other Figma operations.
Features
- Create new Figma design files
- Create new FigJam files
- Handle plan resolution via `whoami`
- Accept custom file names
- Return file key and URL upon creation
Use Cases
- When you need a new Figma design file before starting work.
- When you need a new FigJam file for whiteboarding or collaboration.
- Before calling other Figma skills that require an existing file.
- When automating the setup of new design projects.
Non-Goals
- Editing existing Figma files.
- Managing Figma projects or teams.
- Creating files in specific Figma project folders (only drafts folder supported).
- Supporting editor types other than 'design' or 'figjam'.
Workflow
- Resolve planKey using previous context or `whoami` tool
- Call `create_new_file` tool with appropriate parameters
- Use returned file key and URL for subsequent actions

Figma Create New File
98**MANDATORY prerequisite** — you MUST invoke this skill BEFORE every `create_new_file` tool call. NEVER call `create_new_file` directly without loading this skill first. Trigger whenever the user wants a new blank Figma file — a new design, FigJam, or Slides file — or when you need a fresh file before calling `use_figma`. Usage — /figma-create-new-file [editorType] [fileName] (e.g. /figma-create-new-file figjam My Whiteboard, /figma-create-new-file slides Q3 Review)
Generate Project Plan
98Generate a FigJam project plan board from a PRD plus codebase context. Interactive flow: research → propose sections → per-section deep research → per-section content + block-shape proposal → create FigJam → skeleton → fill → diagrams → wrap. Each content block (section, nested section, intro callout, table, multi-column text, sticky column, diagram section, metadata strip) has its own subskill reference file. Use when the user asks for 'project plan in FigJam', 'interactive project plan', '/generate-project-plan', or provides a PRD and wants per-section confirmation on content + rendering.
Figma Generate Diagram Prerequisite
97MANDATORY prerequisite — load this skill BEFORE every `generate_diagram` tool call. NEVER call `generate_diagram` directly without loading this skill first. Trigger whenever the user asks to create, generate, draw, render, sketch, or build a diagram — flowchart, architecture diagram, sequence diagram, ERD or entity-relationship diagram, state diagram or state machine, gantt chart, or timeline. Also trigger when the user mentions Mermaid syntax or wants a system architecture, decision tree, dependency graph, API call flow, auth handshake, schema, or pipeline visualized in FigJam. Routes to type-specific guidance, sets universal Mermaid constraints, and tells you when to use a different diagram type or skip the tool entirely (mindmaps, pie charts, class diagrams, etc.).
Figma Use Figjam
96This skill helps agents use Figma's use_figma MCP tool in the FigJam context. Can be used alongside figma-use which has foundational context for using the use_figma tool.
